You'll find quite a lot about starting out written throughout the forum, but a great place to start is reading the information we have available in our Education Centre. Just select the Education Tab in the red bar above to get started.

When you have time, read through some posts on the forum in regards to just getting started, best products to sell and so on.

Additional guides you might want to read are our 'Dropshipping Handbook 2011' and "New User Manual' - You find most of what you need to know about dropshipping and product sourcing. To download please go to Link hidden: Login to view

That's a good plan you've got there Frank, and to make it even better I suggest by starting with the small stuff you find in your own home. Look for things you no longer use - check your closets and cabinets, I'm sure you'll find plenty to sell.

This way you get to test your market with a lower risk factor since you didn't (recently) pay for the products you will be selling, plus you might even under cover a niche!

Also, this gives you the chance to work on your feedback while you hone your skills in selling :)
